Antica Locanda dei Mercanti

“Excellent room”

The hotel is at a location, right off a main shopping street. It is an old building. The room is big and have a high ceiling, with a modern touch. Bed is comfortable. I only passed through the city and stayed for one night, in and out. But I will definitely stay here again.

“Great stay in a great little hotel.”

We stayed in a second floor generously sized corner Suite (bed combined with a seating area and kitchenette and a separate en suite bathroom and hall area). This arrangement was fantastic and we loved opening the full height windows to hear the city life. Double glazing ensured a quiet night’s sleep. Only occasionally did we hear the early morning waste collection. The location is superb near to the Centre of Milan and Brera. The cleanliness and housekeeping was excellent - thank you to the people who did this and always with a smile. Also we enjoyed talking to the lovely front of house people who always helped us with tips and arrangements for private cars to the airport or in our case, to Como. Breakfast is simple but fresh with eggs cooked to order, muesli and fruit. Extra charcuterie and cheese is a small cost. Loved the special cake when it was available most mornings. Breakfast is in a pleasant room beside reception. We stayed twice, once for 9 nights and then again for a night on our way back home to Perth, Western Australia. Wonderful stay in a lovely hotel with great, friendly people - makes all the difference on holiday.

“Very nice small hotel”

15 rooms, out of which 4 are with terraces I believe. We had one with a terrace, and that really is great considering we’re very central on Milan. Room was not too big though, but big enough.

15 rooms, out of which 4 are with terraces I believe. We had one with a terrace, and that really is great considering we’re very central on Milan. Room was not too big though, but big enough. Clean and tidy, bathroom big enough and beautiful. On terrace flowers and plants, fairly well protected from eyes, but obviously not from noise from the terraces next to it (if there’s someone talking). Mirrors on the room facing the bed. Friendly service. Breakfast is kinda buffet, but contains only a few things, omelett can be ordered without extra cost, but cheese/ham on your bun costs extra. Anyway, the breakfast served the purpose and the omelett was tasty. Elevator is tiny, but fits one person with 2 luggages. Instructions needed to find the hotel, but by reading carefully the instructions, not hard to find, just believe in yourself. Checkout at 11:00, what happened to old school out by 12:00? Malpensa express train station Cadorna at 10-15 min walking distance, takes you cheaply to airport in like 40mins (taxi 130eur). Location is great, on Via Dante walking street near by shops and these outdoor cafes/restaurants. And Duomo and high end warehouse Rinascente very near. And the more affordable Corso Emmanuelle, also Castello Sforzesco, worth seeing that as well, fairly big collections in there. Metro stations very near. So all in all, this small hotel was as pleasent as I was expecting. Try to have a room with the terrace.
